If someone happened to agree with this analysis and was bearish on western liberalism, is there a place they should put their money in order to potentially profit?
- avelis 6y agoShanghai/Shenzhen Stock Exchange would be my guess.

- trulyme 6y agoI wasn't bearish while reading the article, but your comment does make one wonder... :-/
- klout_ 6y agoNo, there isn't. The best you could do is disassociate from any criticisms you have made about CCP. Better yet, start a pro-CCP newsletter in substack, and hope for the best.
- seriousquestion 6y agoInstitutions like Apple, the NBA and the corporate press embraced this strategy a while ago. They echo CCP talking points about how terrible the US is, while largely ignoring factory worker conditions, Hong Kong and the ongoing Uyghur genocide.
- klout_ 6y agoTaking on CCP or any powerful entity ideologically is above the pay grade of corporate entities, so no surprises there. However the US government should put pressure on these entities and put sanctions when appropriate. You can't keep empowering authoritarian governments at your own expense.

- indigochill 6y agoWell, we see Chinese money flowing into western companies, so if you're going to invest like the Chinese do, it's into western countries. See Tencent's western purchases, for example. I've also heard China's investing in Africa. For manufacturing? I haven't looked into it in any depth. And there's Chinese interest in western real estate, particularly in the UK since the US started a low-key trade war. I don't know how this compares to domestic investment at all, but you'll have a much easier time investing in similar fields to Chinese investors in the west than you will in China, I imagine.
